The increase in the price of air tickets, especially last minute ones, has led more Brazilians to opt for road transport as a more affordable and economical alternative. With the proximity of the Carnival holiday, DeOnibus, one of the largest marketplaces of road tickets in the country, already realizes a significant growth in demand and observed an increase in sales of 30% in relation to the same period of 2024.“Highway transport has been the best option for those who want to travel with economy and comfort.

In order to attract even more passengers and stimulate advance purchases for Carnival, DeBus launched a promotional campaign with discounts for those who are already a customer of the marketplace in round-trip purchases. Purchases made by the site guarantee 10% discount on return ticket, while acquisitions by the application offer 15% of rebate in the same condition. The strategy aims to retain and encourage early purchase, providing more comfort to travelers, ensuring better prices and better located seats.

The road transport sector continues to grow strongly in Brazil, and according to Luana Filomeno, the startup projects a significant expansion in 2025.“In the Carnival preview of this year, compared to the same period of 2024, we have already registered an increase of 30% in sales and 40% in revenue, in addition to an increase of 15% in the average ticket”, complements Filomeno. With this initial boost, DeOibus is expected to achieve exponential growth throughout the year, seeking to expand its market share and further consolidate its brand in the sector.

The expansion in the average ticket is an aspect of extreme relevance for the startup, which already has a growth of 15% only in the preview of the Carnival of 2025, compared to the same period of last year. This increase reflects the greater demand for more comfortable seats, such as the semi bed, bed and bed-bed models.“The Brazilian tourist is prioritizing quality and convenience when traveling.We observed an increase in the choice of premium categories, showing that passengers value a good experience on board.The data reflect not only the resumption of national tourism, but also the strengthening of the road travel culture as a practical and economic option for the cities of January
